Back to School
Well for most of you, you're dreading going back to school tomorrow and you're just wasting away your last few hours of freedom scrolling through Facebook. Or you're me or anyone at my school and you start next week! Haha!
Well that's just my paragraph of gloating. Regardless of the fact that I start next week, I'm going to do a back to school post tonight anyway. If you're still in the swing of summer you can always read this later when it's your turn to scroll through Facebook during your last hours of freedom. Anyways, back to school. It doesn't feel like summer was nearly long, but I guess it never does. As school rolls around, we're dropped into the same area with 1000 (or 4000) other students who have very different standards and views than we do. Almost everyone can find a few other kids who have pretty much the same values and ideas as themselves, but it's hard to be among so many kids who aren't like you. It can be easy maybe to become someone else to try and fit it with everyone else a little bit more. Well, we shouldn't do that.
In Romans 1:16 of the New Testamanet, Paul is writing to the Romans and says, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."In this Epistle, Paul is speaking to the Saints who lived in Rome at the time and proclaiming his faith in the Church. No matter who we are around, and no matter what we believe in, we need to not be ashamed. It is important for us as we go back to school to not be changed in who we are. I think you get the idea. Have an awesome school year, and stay true to yourself. Be honest and stick to your morals.
